“Canada is an amazing place to host our biggest Premium Live Events, with its passionate fans and rich history spanning decades,” said WWE chief content officer Paul “Triple H” Levesque in a news release. “On the heels of the record-breaking Money In The Bank last July, we’re excited to be returning to Toronto for an even bigger event in 2025.”
Elimination Chamber is usually a premium live event that precedes WrestleMania. In February, the event was held in Perth, Australia.
The announcement came after a record viewing in Saudi Arabia of the Crown Jewel.

The company said that in this event the number of viewers increased by 28% compared to last year. It was also the sixth sold-out Crown Jewel event at the Mohammed Abd Arena in Riyadh.
The success of the event put an exclamation point on WWE’s most successful overseas run. The company has held premium live events in Australia, France, Scotland, Canada and Germany so far this year. Crown Jewel was the second event in Saudi Arabia and Survivor Series: War Games will be held in Canada later this month.
